Kate Winslet is definitely THE movie awards girl this year. She’s won multiple awards for both “The Reader” and “Revolutionary Road,” including BAFTA and the Golden Globes. And she looks to be a favorite at the Oscars, too.
I mean, really! Check out her Awards page on IMDB.com. It’s a mile long! And this is nothing new for her; she’s been winning awards since the 1990s.
Winslet has taken her clothes off in a lot of those movies, but now she’s saying no more. In an interview with Time magazine, she says, “I think I won’t do it again: a) I …read more

The 66th Annual Golden Globes Awards are now history. Any hits or misses, in your view? I was shocked but happy to see Mickey Rourke win for Best Actor for "The Wrestler." I think he was, too.
And tearful Kate Winslet was charming when she gave her speech for winning Best Actress. Here’s the rundown, with the winners marked with asterisks. And I guess I’d better see "Slumdog Millionaire" before the Oscars!
Cecil B. DeMille Award
***Steven Spielberg
Best Motion Picture – Drama
***Slumdog Millionaire Fox Searchlight Pictures and Warner Bros.; Fox Searchlight Pictures and Warner Bros.

Things got off to an emotional start at the 66th Annual Golden Globes Awards when Heath Ledger won for Best Supporting Dramatic Actor for his role as The Joker in "The Dark Knight." 
Maggie Gyllenhaal (pictured) noted on the red carpet that while it’s hard to talk about her friend Ledger, she feels that he’s very deserving of the award.
Presenter Demi Moore presented a brief clip of Ledger’s work in the film and afterwards, "Dark Knight" director Christopher Nolan accepted Ledger’s posthumous award, doing so with "a mixture of sadness and incredible pride."
Rather than dwelling on the gap left …read more

The 66th Annual Golden Globes are tonight – 8 p.m. EST on NBC – and everyone looks lovely! It’s fun to see both movie stars and TV stars intermingling on the red carpet. A few thoughts on the red carpet:
Drew Barrymore (pictured) was hand-in-hand with Jessica Lange. They play mother-daughter in an upcoming film, "Grey Gardens." Drew looked so glamorous with her blonde hair and buff bod. She seems like she really has it together these days!
Miley Cyrus talked about getting her mom’s hand-me-down Porsche, but her dad really wants her to get an old Corvette. Also, …read more

The poster for the Golden Globes is online, and I have to say it looks pretty cool. And it’s got that “2001: A Space Odyssey” monolith thing going for it, too.
According to a press release from The Hollywood Foreign Press Association Board of Directors, “The vibrant artwork features the world’s most famous golden orb flanked by parallel rows of palm trees that give a sense of the iconic Los Angeles setting for the event recognized worldwide as ‘The Party of the Year.’”
The poster was created by Los Angeles artist Colin McGreal in association with Famous Frames. And the …read more

The Golden Globe nominations were announced this morning. Check out my predictions here, and watch the video with a few thoughts from Meredith Vieira, Matt Lauer and Entertainment Weekly’s Dave Karger:

My son and I have been impatiently waiting to hear whether Heath Ledger got a Golden Globe nomination for his role as The Joker in “The Dark Knight.” Yes! He’s nominated for Best Supporting Actor.
He’s got some pretty good competition, including Philip Seymour Hoffman in “Doubt,” but I’m betting that Ledger will win that award. We’ll know on Sunday, Jan. 11, 2009, when the 66th Annual Golden Globes Awards will air on NBC at 8 p.m., live from The Beverly Hilton.

Ok, I don’t think of the Iraq war as particularly hilarious, but apparently, Lionsgate does. It’s pushing “W.” in the comedy/musical category at this year’s Golden Globes.
It’s not the first for weird movie categories. Others include “The Mask of Zorro,” “Pride and Prejudice,” and “The Squid and the Whale.” Yeah, all those were laugh-out-loud funny, weren’t they?
The deadline for entries was a few days ago, and I haven’t heard whether the Hollywood Foreign Press Association went for it. Gee, I wonder how Oliver Stone will defend the category. He’s been doing back-flips trying to convince everyone it’s …read more

The 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards will air tomorrow night, Sunday, January 27, at 8 p.m. est on TBS and TNT.
With a waiver from the Writers Guild of America, this may be the big event this awards season. Especially after the less than exciting Golden Globes earlier this month.
Not counting the Critics Choice Awards, this will be the first non-picketed awards show this season.
Although rain of biblical proportions is expected to fall on Los Angeles tomorrow, the red carpet is still in full swing, giving not only the stars a chance to shine, but …read more
